It won’t come as a surprise, then, to learn that “Triassic Parq” first bowed at the 2010 Fringe. Back then it was called “Jurassic Parq,” but the creators pushed back their dateline by a few million years, presumably to ward off Michael Crichton and Steven Spielberg’s lawyers.

The parq of the title keeps a herd of bio-engineered prehistoric animals behind an electric fence. All of them are female, to prevent reproduction, and they live in harmony under the leadership of the preachy Velociraptor of Faith (Wade McCollum).

In case this gets too complicated, a white-suited gentleman named Morgan Freeman (Lee Seymour) provides narration. The name is just an excuse for lame jokes about Freeman’s annoyance when he’s mistaken for Samuel L. Jackson — which would be more subversive if Seymour were black instead of white.

This bucolic scene is shattered when one of the T. Rexes (Claire Neumann) suddenly grows “a 6-inch monstrosity” — represented by a stringy piece of cloth — and basically turns male. Poor T. Rex is mortified by the changes in her body, and her friends are equally flabbergasted.

With Faith stumped, the Velociraptor of Innocence (Alex Wyse) goes off to find answers from the exiled Velociraptor of Science (Lindsay Nicole Chambers). Both actors, late of “Lysistrata Jones,” have a knack for comedy, and “Triassic Parq” is best when they’re front and center. But there’s only so much they can do with the lazy material.

“The ‘s’ in science is for ‘Suck my d – – k,’ ” raps the Velociraptor of Science. “The ‘c’ of science is fo’ ‘Come and take it.’”

Amazingly, it took three people — including Marshall Pailet, who also wrote the music and directed — to come up with those lyrics.

Worse still, the show has no inner logic.

While anthropomorphization is the name of the game in this kind of project, the dinos still have to behave somewhat in character — they know that even in “Ice Age.” Raptors are mean predators, not sweet oafs who sing, “It’s a beautiful day to be a woman/It’s a beautiful day/To hug the things I love.”
